Switching from electric & oil to electric & gas

We are shortly moving from a rented house [electric & oil central heating/hot water] and buying a house [electric & gas central heating/hot water].

The current owners are with SWALEC with a gas/electric/phone package.

How do we find out the best package for us for just the electric & gas, as our phone & broadband are with BT.

    Use any of the recommended comp sites on the main board, armed with your estimated annual kWh figures.
    As you will be in a deemed contract from day one, you will need to register for an account with the existing supplier before you can commence a switch, which will take 4 to 6 weeks.
    No free lunch, and no free laptop ;)

    Thought it might be like that - will get in touch with SWALEC as can't do phone with them because of BT & Broadband.
